Freddy Peralta was knocked around for seven runs in three innings in Friday’s loss to the Braves.

The seven runs allowed matched a career-high. Peralta put himself in an early hole by giving up three runs in the first inning. He walked five batters and threw first-pitch strikes to just 10 out of the 21 batters he faced. That’s not a recipe for success. The 22-year-old now holds a 4.47 ERA and 74/33 K/BB ratio in 56 1/3 innings over 11 starts. His control can get him into trouble. Aug 10 - 11:05 PM

Freddy Peralta notched eight strikeouts while allowing two runs in six innings to record a win over the Rockies on Saturday.

The Brewers' offense staked him out to a huge early lead and he was able to cruise through six frames in relaxed fashion. His only blemish was a two-run homer by Trevor Story in the fourth inning. He allowed just five baserunners: two hits, two walks and a hit batsman while fanning eight in the quality start. He improved his record to 5-2 with a pleasant 3.54 ERA through 10 starts. His strong 71:28 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 53 1/3 innings indicates his success is real and the 22-year-old can be relied upon down the stretch in fantasy leagues. Aug 5 - 1:45 AM

Freddy Peralta worked four innings of one-run ball Monday in a no-decision versus the Dodgers.

Peralta issued four walks but gave up only three hits and struck out six in the 98-pitch outing at Dodger Stadium. Milwaukee would go on to win the game 5-2, with the victory going to Josh Hader. A little more efficiency would be nice, but Peralta holds an impressive 3.61 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, and 63 strikeouts through his first 47 1/3 major league innings. The talented 22-year-old right-hander is lined up to face the Rockies at home next time out. Jul 31 - 2:28 AM

Freddy Peralta was tagged for four hits and seven runs over six innings Wednesday in the Brewers’ loss to Washington.

The right-hander logged seven strikeouts but also walked four batters. He allowed two home runs—one to Bryce Harper in the fifth and another to rookie Juan Soto the following inning. Peralta took it on the chin Wednesday, but still boasts a decent 3.74 ERA along with an elite 11.84 K/9 over eight outings this year. He’ll take a 4-2 record into his next start Monday against the NL-West-leading Dodgers. Jul 25 - 5:42 PM

Vogt underwent season-ending surgery on his right shoulder last week, but it was less invasive than anticipated and shouldn't threaten his career as long as the rehab process goes smoothly. "Obviously, there is a lot of hard work ahead of me," Vogt said, "but there is some hope in the future that I can regain full strength and be back." The 33-year-old catcher is arbitration-eligible this winter, though the Brewers figure to non-tender him.

Jimmy Nelson (shoulder) was cleared to begin throwing breaking balls after a checkup with Dr. Neal ElAttrache on Tuesday.

Nelson can now work his entire arsenal into bullpen sessions and might just be able to return to the Brewers before September, as general manager David Stearns predicted earlier this month. The 29-year-old right-hander has been out all season after suffering a labrum tear and rotator cuff strain last September.

Zach Davies (shoulder) is scheduled to make his next minor league rehab start Thursday with Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Davies owns a 6.14 ERA and 12/8 K/BB ratio in 14 2/3 innings through four starts since restarting a rehab assignment. Pitchers are allowed to have a 30-day rehab window in the minors, so Davies could be extended until August 25, but Brewers manager Craig Counsell said the club could have a decision to make after his next rehab start. Davies has been sidelined since late May with back and shoulder injuries.

Bruce Suter underwent Tommy John surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow on Tuesday.

Suter will spend the next couple of weeks in Cincinnati before rejoining the team for the remainder of the season. He'll miss the rest of the 2018 season, and because of the timing of the procedure, the 2019 season is also very much in jeopardy.

Matt Albers (hamstring) has been cleared to begin a minor league rehab assignment Tuesday with Double-A Biloxi.

Albers went down earlier this month with a left hamstring strain. He was struggling prior to the injury, allowing 10 runs over four appearances after missing a month and a half with shoulder inflammation.
